First up I have a confession with this lipstick…I bought it years ago when I visited New York & have only worn it once. In fact I don’t even think I’ve worn this one out.

At the time of purchase I bought a bunch of red lipsticks; all shades & brands I had researched before hand on numerous blogs & websites. This one came up a few times as a perfect red but I find it’s a bit gothic for me:

It’s light wearing on the lips & the finish is like a Mac lustre. You can build the colour up & now that I’ve worn it again I think I might have to give it a second chance. That being said when it’s got amazing matte finish contenders I can see myself neglecting this one yet again…

Still, I love the packaging…pink chrome with a little gem on top so even if I just gaze at it fondly I’m happy to own it. Plus the name! LOVE IT
